Haired Sisko or Bald Sisko?

[Arpy]

I voted for haired because bald seemed like he was trying too hard. I didn't see a captain; I saw Hawk.

Maybe if he had neither hair nor goatee. Or if he wore is hair really nearly-bald short w/o goatee.

Nobody's mentioned Sisko's other look: full head of hair with goatee.

Keep up the trend Picard > Sisko > Next ?

You forgot Shatner; we all know his secret. So, Kirk, Picard, Sisko... maybe Janeway would have been cooler with a chrome dome.

Actually Janeway did change her hair and it seemed to affect her personality (at least it did to me). She didn't became bald obviously, but she had shorter hair and wore it open.

Bald is badass. End of discussion.

Bald Sisko. The same look on Cirroc Lofton is really bad-ass as well.

Lofton as Uhura's half-Vulcan in the "Of Gods and Men" alternate timeline.

Oh god, he really looks like Sisko's son!!!
If he didn't act so very good, you would think Tony Todd was horribly miscast as older Jake, now.

Not to change the subject, but is this available anywhere? I've never seen it.

Bald with goatee was by far my favourite Sisko.

 

[Mr. Fergy]

^Agreed. Without a doubt.

 

[EnsignRicky]

Is this a trick question?

Bald, Bearded, and Badass.

Being more comfortable in the role made him a twunt? And I think his acting was worse. When I think of a crap-acting Brooks, I think of bald Sisko.

This I don't see at all, Avery Brook's acting easily improved from the point where he grew the beard. Most of the time when he had a background role in the early seasons he seemed to be bored, which is largely because he actually was bored by the role and wanted to leave. Once Ira Behr took over and allowed Avery a bit more freedom with the character, that changed and Avery seemed far more interested in the role, sometimes to the point of over-acting. From that point on Sisko is a much more enjoyable character because you're watching a guy that's into his work rather than a guy that's just there to fulfil his contract.

On the other hand, you have to wonder at the professionalism of an actor who appears to do the barest minimum because he doesn't like the gig.

Also, getting to do your hair the way you want it makes you a better actor? Give me a break. He was downright embarrassing in some episodes in the later seasons.
